Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 331 - Departure

Chapter 331 – Departure

Actually, Yang Junshan was not completely confident that he could break through the bottleneck of the later stage of the martial arts realm within a year. After all, the time it took to advance to the third stage of the martial arts realm wasn’t long, and he only had three years of time in total.

However, the complicated situation in the Mengyu County and the impending storm that would engulf the entire cultivation world caused Yang Junshan to have no choice but to think of all sorts of ways to increase his own strength. Even if his foundation was unstable because of rapid cultivation growth, he could only wait for the future to think of a way.

Compared to the time when Yang Tiangang advanced to the late stage of the martial arts realm, the activity of the latter part of the martial arts realm was much greater. However, all of the villagers of the Xishan Village did not sense it at all.

On top of the Western Mountain, only Yang Tiangang and Yang Junping were dumbstruck at the moment of Yang Junshan’s breakthrough. The ground beneath their feet was trembling, and the surrounding silt and rocks were sliding, but they did not slide downwards from a high place, rather, they strangely showed a trend of moving upwards, and the direction they were moving in was the Western Mountain.

If one were able to stand at the peak of the western mountain and look down from above, one would be able to clearly feel that with the western mountain as the center, everything on the ground seemed to be thinking about the Western Mountain, forming an orderly pattern of fish scales.

“Dad, do you have a feeling that the Western Mountain is increasing in size!?”

Yang Tiangang let out a “Heh” and exhaled. He restrained the surprise on his face and said: “This boy, is he stirring up too much trouble!?”

“It’s all thanks to Big Brother’s Three Elements of Control, otherwise, if he were to cause such a commotion, the Martial Realm Cultivator from all over the country would have all been brought here already!”

Yang Tiangang glanced at his own second son, and asked: “Why, are you not jealous?”

What am I jealous of? “Yang Junping casually said:” My brother has been taking care of me since I was young, and the pair of medium quality immortal spirits that I used to open the Celestial Spirit Aperture on were brought back by him from the Banyan Mountain. All these years he has been wandering outside, which time did he not bring me many useful things.

Yang Tiangang scolded with a smile: “You lazy bastard, you can be considered to have some conscience!”

As the two brothers grew older, each of them had their own thoughts, but luckily, these thoughts did not affect the relationship between the two brothers, which was what Yang Tiangang valued the most.

“But to be honest, Father.” Yang Junping, who was smiling a moment ago, had a serious look on his face, and there waare hint of seriousness in his tone.

Seeing that Yang Tiangang was about to haveasing look on his face, Yang Junping quickly said: “Father, don’t laugh, I am serious. My brother’s cultivation has already advanced to the fourth level of martial arts realm. But right now, my cultivation is still at the first level, we’re only three years away from each other. Didn’t you say that the further our cultivation gets to the end, the harder it would be to raise our cultivation?

Yang Tiangang sized up his second son from head to toe, and still made fun of him, saying: “I really can’t tell!”

Immediately, Yang Tiangang continued: “You’re already not bad, in three years of time, not only did you consolidate your martial arts realm cultivation, your cultivation was also raised by just a step from the second stage. Let alone the Wasteland Town, even in the Mengyu County, this speed can be considered extremely fast!”

After all, he’s my blood brother, so it’s better for me to not embarrass myself. But father, you might not pay too much attention to Seventh Uncle’s child, Xiao Hao, because he’s even younger than Third Sister, and is still laying the foundation for immortality last year, and has already reached the fifth stage of his Mortal Realm this year. It has to be said that in these few years, I have not lacked any cultivation resources at all, and at least have become much richer than Thirteenth Brother.

Yang Junping being lifted up by Yang Junhao caused Yang Tiangang to suddenly freeze, and his expression became somewhat lonely. Just as he was about to say something, his spirit sense moved, and said: “Your brother is about to come out!”

Yang Junping looked up and saw a yellow spirit cloud rising from the top of the western mountain. On top of the spirit cloud, Yang Junshan was floating in mid air and was slowly flying towards the two of them.

“It seems like those of us who cultivate the Earth Elemental Spell are not very good at flying through the air!”

Yang Junshan slowly landed beside the two of them, restrained the Qi around his body and said with a smile.

Yang Junping asked in envy: “Brother, can I take it that you are showing off?”

Yang Junshan patted his shoulder, and only now did he realise that the height of his second brother had already exceeded his own. Originally, Yang Junshan’s height was not low, but Yang Junping was actually taller than him by a forehead, and his figure was even more imposing and burly.

“Don’t worry, you will reach this stage sooner or later,” Yang Junshan laughed, “Hey, by the way, how has your cultivation of spirit arts been going for this year, you should have pretty much completed cultivating the spirit of breaking mountain, right?”

How would I have the time to practice my spirit arts and abilities? “Yang Junping grumbled:” This past year has been used to cultivate my Earthen Shrouding Treasure Formula, this treasure art is much more difficult to cultivate than my spirit arts, but the condensed spirit energy is also much more dense, no wonder it is easier to breakthrough this bottleneck.

Yang Junshan turned around to look at Yang Tiangang again, and said: “Oh right, Father, has the spirit energy in your body already been purified with the art of treasure?”

Yang Tiangang smiled and said: “It won’t be that easy, but it’ll be soon. In about three to five months, I’ll be able to convert all of the spirit energy in my body into the amount needed to cultivate the Overlapping Earth Treasure Incantation. In this way, in the future, if I have the chance to breakthrough the realms of life, my father’s chances of my success will increase by at least ten to twenty percent!”

Yang Junshan then asked: “How is the situation in Mengyu County this year, did Xiong Family make any moves?”

Yang Tiangang laughed: “Let’s talk about this while we walk, your mother has already arranged a feast at home, to celebrate your cultivation advancement, all of the clan’s elders are coming, do not make them wait for long!”

The three of them continued to laugh and chat as they walked down the western mountain. Yang Junping’s voice kept asking, “Brother, these Three Inscriptions Spirit Convergence Array and the Invisible Spirit Convergence Array overlapped each other, wouldn’t it cause chaos?”

“This is called setting up an array, it’s a secret technique of the Dao of array formations!”

“That Spirit Convergence Array is fine, but the gathering of spirit energy is important. However, what is this Spirit Convergence Array used for?”

“Today, our Xishan Village only has two fused spiritual sources, to provide for cultivation, to nourish the Ling Tian, to support the operation of the array formation, the little amount of spirit energy was originally insufficient to meet the demand, and in the process of using it, there was even a large amount of spirit energy which was wasted. It’s sucity, but the Three Elements of Spirit Control Formation is used to coordinate the use of spirit energy in the entire array of the Xishan Village, in order to minimize the wastage of spirit energy.

In the process of operation, there was always the waste of spirit energy resources, and the Three Elements of Spirit Control Formation waype of auxiliary formation that could avoid decreasing the strength of the formation because of waste of resources.

The celebratory feast for Yang Junshan naturally had a commotion, but this commotion was limited to the higher levelled cultivators of the clan knowing, so the news of Yang Junshan’s cultivation advancing to the late stage of martial arts realm was still confidential.

Early in the morning on the second day, Seventh Aunt’s family of three quietly came to Yang Tiangang’s house to say their goodbyes. Yang Tiangang’s family had long since known that they were leaving today and had long been waiting at home.

Since you have made up your mind, I will not try to persuade you anymore, but the journey to Sangzhou is a long one. Since the cultivation world is strange, it is hard to avoid danger on your journey, so you should be extra careful, take these spirit pills with you, it will be useful on your journey.

Seeing that Yang Tiangang had directly given him a storage bag, An Xia quickly declined: “Third brother, all these years you have taken care of us, our family has benefited greatly, how can we take your things again, and furthermore, now that you have rebuilt the Yang family, you need to accumulate resources, you should leave these things behind!”

Yang Tiangang waved his hand, and said: “Stop being long-winded, no matter how short of money Yang family has, we will not give you this little thing, you and Seventh Sister are fine, but the key is that we can’t let our child suffer, that Ling Yizong is a big sect of the Sangzhou, even if you have the keepsake in hand, maybe you have to go up and down to get it, at that time it might not be enough!”

An Xia was ashamed: “Since Madame Yang has just become a Prominent Class, the situation in Mengyu County has not stabilized yet. Originally, we should not have left at this time, but with Hao’er’s cultivation, aigh, we cannot wait.

Yang Tiangang’s expression turned serious, and said: “Why does my family say that, my child is the most important. If Hao’er has any future, and is able to become a Divine Cultivator, then I, as your uncle, will have some face!”

Han Xiumei stood to the side and spoke to Seventh Aunt. The two women couldn’t help but cry and feel some tears.

On the other hand, the three Yang Junshan siblings were enjoying the show with Yang Junhao. Yang Junxin held onto Yang Junhao’s ears with both of his hands and said: “Little Hao, I heard that you are going to join the big sect.

“Of course, my father said that Ling Yizong is a sect that is even bigger than the Heaven-Shaken Sect, when I go there, I will at least be an inner sect disciple, and my cultivation will definitely be powerful!”

This brat was obviously still immersed in his dreams of joining a big sect, and did not notice the situation he was in at all, and continued to brag as he spoke, but unexpectedly, this made Yang Junxin even more angry, and her two hands directly pinched onto’s face, causing her handsome little face to change shape, as she cried out.

“Alright, alright, stop messing with little Hao. Look at little Hao, you’ve squeezed your eyes so hard that tears are about to come out!” Yang Junping immediately patted his hands, saving Yang Junhao’s pretty face.

“I’m not crying!” The little boy’s face was green and red. He kept sniffing and saying stubbornly.

Yang Junshan rubbed his head and said gently: “Of course Little Hao didn’t cry. Little Hao is already a man, in the future, when Ling Yizong enters, he will definitely cultivate diligently. In the future, he will definitely surpass me, Fourth Brother!”

“Really? Will I be able to catch up with Fourth Brother then? My dad always said he wanted me to be like Fourth Brother! ”

Yang Junshan patted his little face, and laughed: “I will, I definitely will!”
